“Kimberly is great- Emmy loves her! She makes traveling so much easier, and she takes adorable photos of Emmy with the zoomies, playing hide-and-seek, and curled up looking cozy. Couldn't be happier!”
“Trinia is a very professional dog carer. She is kind, competent and very reliable. I feel completely comfortable leaving Maxi with her and would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.”
“Shalese was a perfect sitter for our dog, Bobo. She sent us daily pictures to keep us updated and even took him to a dog costume party we mentioned to her at our local park! I would highly recommend Shalese if you’re looking for a sitter. Bobo loved her so much and looked like he had a great time.”
“Stephanie was amazing with my two anxious dogs! She was so patient and sweet and went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable while we were away. She sent daily updates and photos which really gave me peace of mind. It's obvious how much she cares about the well being of animals and has a gift working with them. She also left my house spotless. I highly recommend Stephanie for pet sitting!”
“This was Akisha’s first sitting in this area and I will strongly recommend her for house sitting your beloved pets. She kept me informed me throughout via pictures and video messages and took a great care of my dog and the house.”
“Cordigen has looked after our two dogs 5 times this month, with the most recent visit being an all day plus evening care. She has proven to be the caregiver we hoped for. She is loving to the dogs, responsible, responsive and sends us updates during and after her visits. It is such a privilege to have a caregiver we trust, so we can focus on and enjoy activities away from our pets. We have appreciated her flexibility when our schedules have been in flux, as well as covering a last minute need. We plan to continue to request her services for all our pet caregiving needs.”
“Audra is very responsible and caring not just with Emi but also with our home, she is very communicative and send us updates about our dog and Emi loves her. I would recommend Audra to anyone :)”
“Ian went above and beyond my expectations! They keys in regular communication so that I knew my pup was being well taken care of, and Ian sent spectacular photos too! They also kept my apartment tidy, even doing laundry and dishes. Thank you so much Ian!”
“CJ is a great pet sitter. He is extremely responsible and reaches out anytime there is a question related to the care of the pets (we have one dog and two cats). He gets to know the animals and their preferences. I would definitely suggest CJ to other people.”
“Maria was a pleasure! I can't recommend her enough. She was kind, professional, very neat, personable, and very responsive. Lots of pictures! She has infectious smile and way about her that made Gigi instantly love her.”
“Austin was all I could ask for in a dog sitter. He really took the time to assess if my dog and him were a good fit. While he dog sat communicated clearly and sent updates. I would recommend his services!”
“Alexis is amazing. Daily updates and photos, connecting with questions, and being super cautious. Made our experience traveling without our dog so much brighter. Sadie, our dog, has a new bestie in Alexis. She did a great job and I am so appreciative.”
“Katie was a hit with our two dogs right off the bat! From the first moment they met she immediately had their attention and enable them to take direction quickly. While we were away Katie took them to the park numerous walks spent tons of quality time with them and in general made the weekend as much a vacation for the pups as it was for us, the home was in great shape when we came home, and even personalized cute report cards for the pups! Book Katie while you have the chance!!”
“Barbara stayed in our home to watch our two pups while we took a weekend trip. Prior to leaving, she came over and spent a significant amount of time to get to know and learn about our dogs. I was not at all concerned about leaving them in her care. When we got home not only were our pups well taken care of, our home was exactly how we had left it. I highly recommend Barbara.”
“Zoey took excellent care of Bodhi and Mavis. I think they had more fun then they do when we’re home!! She also was very careful and conscientious with our home. I highly recommend her!”
“Korinne was fantastic. She took care of my kitty for 4 days and spent ample time with him, stayed the night, provided several updates a day and made me feel that he was well taken care of. Will definitely try to have her visit again in the future when I need help!”
“She answered my last-minute request and took care of our two large German shepherds and one tiny dog perfectly - our dogs immediately fell in love with her, and usually they are an annoying, noisy bunch, but they behaved chill. Thank you so so much for taking care of them and I'd love to ask you to take care of them again.”
“Guilherme took care of our dog and cat during the Christmas and new years holiday. He sent many updates with photos, helped bring the garbage bins inside and collect mail and left our home more organized than when we left. Highly recommend and definitely hope to use his services again when we travel. Thanks Guilherme!”
About: My experienced started 7 years ago, as I started walking friends and my family friends dogs. I have also walked faster and slower dogs as well as even a blind dog before and have continued ever since. I’m a full time college student with classes from Mondays to Thursdays. I can do afternoons on Tue/Thu, Wednesdays, and weekends whenever works. I can definitely make accommodations. I have a fenced backyard and I always keep an eye out on pets to make sure they are safe, happy, secure, all at the same time.

Korinne was fantastic. She took care of my kitty for 4 days and spent ample time with him, stayed the night, provided several updates a day and made me feel that he was well taken care of. Will definitely try to have her visit again in the future when I need help!
This was our second time booking Stephanie to watch our senior dog. She took great care of her and we came home to a happy dog. We appreciated that she took out the trash and kept our house clean. We are thankful to have found a great sitter to give us peace of mind while we’re traveling. Thanks for all of your help, Stephanie!
Jaya was super accomodating and flexible with the dates. My dog Mila was super comfortable with her. Jaya had excellent communication and took great pics, kept regular updates. I was able to travel with peace of mind, so I will continue booking with her again for sure!
Victoria was fantastic with Piggy and Toast. She was kind, reliable, a great communicator, and sent us lovely photo updates while we were away. The dogs clearly adored her, and we came home to an incredibly tidy house. We’re so happy we found her and would absolutely book her again!
Genevieve took care of our dog Miso over the long weekend (house sitting) and did a stellar job. It’s clear she loves animals. She asked thoughtful questions during the meet and greet, and sent lots of photos and videos throughout her stay. She even left flowers and some baked goods for us after we returned. We would definitely rebook her!
Rachel was wonderful housesitting our very senior kitty. Her reports were not only very detailed but also full of love and warmth for our kitty. We also really appreciate that she is comfortable giving medications and keeping an eye out for basic senior issues. This is the first time we’ve left our 19 yr old kitty in a year, but we knew he was in great hands with Rachel. We can’t recommend her enough.
This is the first time we have used Adam. He helped us over night and was so good with our dog Bailey. He was very attentive to all her needs. He sent many pictures which meant alot because we knew she was in good hands. We will definitely book him the next time we need him.
From first introduction to yesterday's assignment, Stephen was a 5-star performer and a pet's best friend! Highly recommend Stephen if you're looking for a dog and pet savvy person who's responsible, caring, and detail-oriented... and one who adores dogs and dogs (at least mine) adore right back. Stephen's care meant my dog got a "spa day" rather than a dull day... walks, treats, sunshine naps, and ear scritches all included.
I cannot recommend William highly enough! From the moment we left town, I knew Nala was in good hands. He was super-communicative, sending multiple photo and written updates every day, ensuring me that she was being cared and loved for while I was out of the house. I’ll be reaching out to him first when I need a dog-sitter again!
